Description

Two musicians, Moeta and Goro, travel across Japan trying to gain musical stardom. Their journey in Japan takes them to places such as Harajuku and the Roppongi district, with their ultimate goal of performing in the United States of America in New York.

Hana no Star Kaidō is a side-scrolling platformer containing six stages. The stages however aren't straightforward as the player has to find the right path to take in order to reach the ending of a stage, A unique feature of the gameplay is that the player has to control both characters at the same time. Both characters move in tandem and the player can control the distance they stand by each other. Each one has their own life count, and the game is over as soon as one of them loses all of their lives.

Moeta and Goro can defend themselves by firing out musical notes at enemies to defeat them. Items are scattered about the stages. Players can collect items like gold records or an electric guitar that provides temporary invincibility.
